Overview: |
The
Holocaust has been the subject of
countless books, works of art, and
memorials. Fifty-five years after the
fact the world still ponders the
enormity of this disaster. The
Holocaust Encyclopedia is the only
comprehensive single-volume work of
reference providing both a reflective
overview of the subject and abundant
detail concerning major events, policy
decisions, cities, and individuals.
Up-to-date and designed for easy
access, the encyclopedia presents
information on the major aspects of
the Holocaust in essays by scholars
from eleven countries who draw on a
number of sources - including recently
uncovered evidence from the former
Soviet bloc - to provide in-depth
studies on the political, social,
religious, and moral issues of the
Holocaust as well as short entries
identifying events, sites, and
individuals. The book also has more
than 250 photographs, many of them
rare, and 19 maps. |
